WRT Post #24:


Taking into account Number of Ticks and Tick Size is a great idea.
So I understand that :
CL : Tick Size =1 Number of Ticks = 2 N*s = 2 cents
NQ : Ticks Size = 4 Numbert of Ticks = 5 N*s = 5 points
Am I correct ?

Tick Size = 0.01 (not 1) and Number of Ticks = 2 would result in N*s = 2 cents.

I do not know what CL and NQ mean.


Condition for OTF(up) state entry :


L[2] < L[1] AND L[1] < L // We want two successive strict clean Higher Lows
See image for illustration of strict higher highs ; CL, 15 mn TPO, 2 ticks

You said in Post #19 that OTF(Up) occurs in an uptrend. That does not only imply higher lows, but also higher highs. Do we not need to check for those as well?


For futher evaluation of OTF(up) state, I define a threshold level : LastStrictHigherLow, noted LSHL.
I will compare current Low to this threshold, as I don't want an endless downside drift each time within the N*s limit.
Condition for OTF(up) state exit :


LSHL=max(LSHL[1),L[1]) // LSHL is the max of previous Last Strict Higher Low and previous Higher Low

LastStrictHigherLow - N*s > L // Compares last Low below previous Low minus N*s

Is this how Dalton defines the exit criterion in the primary source?
